SSU module and .htaccess

Leave a comment (0) Go to comments

All looks good and it works as long as your ZenCart is imstalled in the root.

Problems appear when you have ZenCart installed in /shop folder for example.

To understand better I will take and example:

website: olalawebsite.com/shop

absolute path on hosting server: /home/olala/public_html/shop

The make your website to display correct your products / pages you must change 2 files :

includes/configure.php

define(‘HTTP_SERVER’, ‘http://olalawebsite.com’);
define(‘HTTPS_SERVER’, ‘https://olalawebsite.com’);

define(‘DIR_WS_CATALOG’, ‘/shop/’);
define(‘DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG’, ‘/shop/’);

define(‘DIR_FS_SQL_CACHE’, ‘/home/olala/public_html/shop/cache’);

.htaccess

RewriteEngine On

# Don’t rewrite any URIs ending with a file extension (ending with .[xxxx])
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.[a-zA-Z]{2,4}$
# Don’t rewrite admin directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/shop/admin.* [NC]
# Don’t rewrite editors directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/shop/editors.* [NC]
# Don’t rewrite cPanel directories
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/shop/cpanel.* [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/shop/frontend.* [NC]
# Handle all other URIs using Zen Cart (index.php)
RewriteRule (.*) index.php?%{QUERY_STRING} [L]

Note: ALL ABOVE (htaccess) ARE JUST example, fell free to add as many “allow/deny” as you wish.

Contact OLALA for any custom request. We can do absolutely anything you may wish with ZenCart.
